Xyriel Manabat's new TV series to replace Imortal

Xyriel Manabat, who rose to fame after playing the young Agua and Bendita, is one of the lead stars of ABS-CBN's upcoming television series "100 Days to Heaven."

In an interview with "The Buzz" on Sunday, the child star confirmed that her show will replace fantasy series "Imortal," which is top-billed by John Lloyd Cruz and Angel Locsin.

"Ipapalit po doon sa 'Imortal'," basta po malapit na malapit na," Manabat said. Cruz earlier said that the "Imortal" finale is set to be aired this month.

"100 Days to Heaven" tells the story of Anna Manalastas (portrayed by Coney Reyes), a bossy and cunning owner of a toy company who is about to go to hell. She strikes a deal with the Gate Keeper to give her a second chance at life and returns to the world as a helpless 7-year-old, which is played by Manabat.









Manabat said she attended acting workshops with Reyes and her other co-stars to prepare for her new role.

"'Yung kapag umarte po siya (Reyes), kahit po pwede na kaming umuwi ay pinapanood po namin siya," the child star said.

Also part of "100 Days to Heaven" are stars Jodi Sta. Maria, Dominic Ochoa, Valerie Concepcion, Smokey Manaloto and newest child actor Louise Abuel.
